Creative & Design Recap

Thank you so much for spending some time with me.

It's been great to be your coach,

and hey, maybe I'll even be your teammate if you pursue a career in the creative industry.

Here's a recap of what we talked about.

First, I walked you through my background.

If you're looking for a takeaway from my journey,

just know that there's not one correct path to being a creative professional.

Follow your inspiration and stay connected with your friends and peers.

You never know what opportunities might arise.

Then we talked about what it means to be a creative professional,

whether you're interested in design, creative writing, video production, you name it.

There's lots of cool jobs out there,

especially within the sports world.

But while you hone your skills individually,

you've got to collaborate with others.

Just like on the pitch.

Next, were some of my favorite creative executions.

Whether it's kits, commercials, or anything in between

just know that great creative comes from great ideas with great execution.

From there, we talked about the art of designing crests and kits.

Like any creative work, there's no hard and fast rules,

but if you start from a place of research,

and follow your inspiration,

you'll have a better chance of creating something that feels true to the community you're creating for.

That's it for me. Thanks again.

Bring some creative craftsmanship to any project you work on, and you'll make the world a more interesting and beautiful place.
